Recap by phillip woo

Super Dragon settled midfield and one off the rails, straightened four deep, engaged the leader Highland Hammer at the 200m and put his head down when it counted most on the wire. Favourite Highland Hammer led one off the fence with Eastern Express holding the rails, cornered a length on top along the rails and gave a good sight only to falter in the shadows of the post. Eastern Express tracked the leader on the fence, was held up until pulling out three deep at the 200m and flew home to just miss. He relished the extra 200m and won't be far off a winning run. Classic Emperor settled fourth along the rails, had to steady coming to the final bend, cornered with two wider out and ran on steadily for fourth. First-up winner Happy Chappy settled third and one off the rails without cover passing the 600m, straightened near three deep and was one-paced over the final 150m. Fine With Me only beat stragglers widest out after travelling second from the rear in his debut.
